Getting Started
    Setting up an ad hoc network for your computer is a great way to be able to use your Mobile Mouse by connecting directly to your computer, without the need for a WIFI router. This is the next best thing to using Bluetooth. The first thing you will need is a laptop with WIFI, or a 802.11b wireless card in your desktop PC. Once you have made sure you have the necessary hardware, setting up an ad hoc network is a breeze. However, please do not attempt to make any changes to your network unless you have some understanding about how to network your computer. Although we have tested these directions to work, we can't help you fix your computer if you make any changes that mess up your networking. Please proceed with caution.
